You have to admit Fox News isn't really news anymore. News are supposed to be delivered in a matter-of-fact, non-biased manner. Not that other channels don't do the same, but with Fox, just about every news item in any of their newscast is delivered with a not-so-subtle and highly-orchestrated-to-look-like-news partisan slant.

For example, when I go to one of our data centers, the break room has a TV which is turned to Fox News 24/7 (or it seems as every time I go there that's what is on). Last time I was there, I caught the "newscast" reporting on Obama's health care. The bimbo anchor went on stating how this health plan was going to bring the economy down, infect your soul, curve your spine, keep the country from winning the war... she also told us about how the number of Americans without healthcare reported by the Govt. was misleading and to prove it she turned to a "field reporter" who told us how these numbers were misleading because a) they included the Scourge of the 21st Century (illegal aliens), and what issue affecting America today is not caused by them, and b) "millions of Americans" choose not have health care, and to prove this, the reporter interviewed a white young man wearing a white shirt and tie in an office setting, who said "I choose not to get health care because I can't afford it". O....K....

..not exactly how Walter Cronkite would've handled it.

Personally, I get my news from The Daily Show.

On Fox news while I agree with a lot of the sentiment, I don't agree with their delivery sometimes. I do feel that the big 3 tend to whitewash the President's shortcomings.

Fox News is for those who not only can't think critically, but also for those whose reptillian brains dominate their consciousness. If they were to ever recognize the Saints, it would be in the context of the godless "fag loving" drunken welfare squatter fans who bring this country down.

So people who watch Fox News and don't have your point of view aren't Saints Fans? I was born long before Fox News came around but I'm sure they'll outlast my old arse.

Hey, I resemble that remark!

At least FoxNews gives you all the news and both sides of the issues so you can decide for yourself. The major networks spoon feed you just what they want you to know. They have a very low opinion of their own viewers.
